I saw her her in SB a couple years back...it was my introduction to her
music as I hadn't heard her songs before. I loved it! I remember her pretty
much playing in the same open tuning & strumming with a pick. I believe it
was the tour where she recorded Live because she mentioned recording her
shows & that she had just been dropped by her label (or something
referencing that). I wasn't paying that much attention cause I was just
enjoying the show overall but this is my impression of her guitar playing.
She wore a ballerina tutu...the kind that sticks out sideways!

Marian wrote, "People who have seen Jonatha live could say better how she
achieves her
sounds.  I think she uses a pick most of the time, somehow managing to pick
out individual tones along with strumming and percussion.  There are some
songs, like Love Song, that are entirely fingerpicked, and some, like
Linger, that are entirely strummed, but most seem to be a combination of
picking and strumming.  Because I Told You So is a good example of the
combination.  Would love to hear from anyone who has seen Jonatha live about
this topic."
